Menzi Muck

At BGWS, we own a specialist excavator - the Menzi Muck M540. This is a specialist machine which is capable of working on steep slopes, deep silt, and within up to 2m of water. It is highly suited to steep-slope forestry and timber harvesting, pond and waterways maintenance, and tree safety works on inaccessible sites.

We have a variety of attachments for the Menzi Muck, including a Woody 50 harvester head with bark stripping rollers, a grapple saw, alongside standard excavator buckets. We can also provide a forestry mulcher attachment.
